Ministry Without Offense

Neville's Inner Vision

The verse invites you to see the ministry as a condition of inner awareness rather than a distant duty. In Neville’s language, the offense to be avoided is any inner movement—fear, judgment, or concern—that would stain the I AM with separation. When you acknowledge that you are the I AM, the Source expressing through you, the outer work cannot be blamed because there is nothing but God presenting itself as you. To heed this, cultivate a mental climate where every act, word, and decision arises from the unoffended nature within. See your ministry not as a burden to be defended, but as the natural expression of your indwelling presence. If doubts arise or you sense blame, return to the feeling of God as your own awareness, and revise the moment to reflect that you are the conduit of divine substance. As you remain anchored in this inner state, the appearance of fault or blame in the world will recede, for you are no longer projecting anything but the pure presence of the divine.
